    Creative/memorable rule bending

    I came across a couple F1 cheats: An F1 innovation happened when they limited the fuel to one tank full, a team made the gas tank into a refrigerator to get a little more fuel. F1 starts each race when the start lights turn off, a couple teams determined a radio signal turned the lights out...

    Creative/memorable rule bending

    I enjoy the stories about cheating innovations. Keep in mind that all of these innovations turned the pamphlet of a rule book into volumes (I don't know how big the rule book is now).

    F1 Jeddah Race thread

    Max was trying to dictate where the pass would be made so he could use DRS to retake the lead. I think Hamilton knew what he was doing and tried to avoid it. I prefer the push-to-pass that Indycar uses. I first thought it was a gimmick but seeing it in practice it allows drivers to...

    Dale jr podcast

    I thought it was interesting that Jr and Kevin had said things that offended each other and they didn't know they offended each other. I was also surprised that they socialized early in their careers.

    Dale jr podcast

    Has Jr interviewed Matt Kenseth? Those two had a friendly rivalry in the Busch series and I think they were friends. Both congratulated each other in victory lane at their first wins. Jr was the first to win a race during their first year in Cup but Matt won Rookie of the Year over Jr.

    Jayski says practice and qualifying are back.

    My favorite qualifying is the Twin 125s and the All Star race when they included a pit stop. I'm interested to see how the four formats work. The last new format (parking at the end of pit road) was a disaster.

    F1 Qatar Race Thread (Presented by Track limits)

    I've seen the F1 points leader wreck their competition to prevent them from gaining points in the past.

    NASCAR 2021 - BOLD Prediction Thread - The VOTE

    I didn't know the Dinger would be racing Cup when I made my prediction. I figured a plate race or a rain-shortened race were outside chances for a non charter team to win. It turns out road racing is also an equalizer.

    Dale jr podcast

    I got a kick out of last week's episode. Dale & Austin Dillon compared notes about the new car (both test drove the car). I was amused when they were talking about a diffuser that creates down force. Dale asked a question only a driver would ask "Would you bump the back of a car to damage the...

    2021 Petit Le Mans

    Wild finish. If the 31 didn't run the 10 off the track, the 10 probably would have run the 31 off the track.

    "Blue Oval". "Bow tie". "Ram". "Arrowhead".

    Ford blue oval started in 1903 Chevy bow tie started in 1913 Dodge ram started in 1932 The Toyota logo started in 1990 - it hasn't been around long enough to get a nickname (tri-oval sounds OK but is limited to racing).

    I'm happy for Kyle Larson and his team. I think they were the best team this season.

    Do The Championship 4 Finish P1, 2, 3 & 4?

    This is the one race where the field gets out of the way of the 4. The 4 are points racing between themselves - they only have to be in front of the other 3. I'd like to see some of the other drivers try and win the race.
